Latest beta drivers I believe. I turn off a bunch off anything that polls the GPU, and I disable sound on a device level during the benchmark. I've said it before and I'll say it again, the 5850 and 5870 perform exactly the same at the same clocks.
Try the extreme settings and see if that still happens. (Well, if you have a 5870 to test with, anyway.)
